I didn't finish this one as it was too long to get anywhere. I have always hated getting the 'sweets' as it is most of the time a move to get them then a move back so using up 2 moves to gain an extra 3... this time I aimed to get all the sweets and still didn't finish so its a bit boring. I also found it too small to see where it was a dead end without enlarging the page. Like another old timer the prizes were okay but not much of an incentive to finish, but free is free!

I finished, but the glitches were incredibly annoying. I lost several moves because of the recharge delay. If I hadn't lost those moves, I would have finished the mazes without any passes. I only bought treats once though, so I can't complain too much. Additionally, it was nice to see the event be the way events should be. You get the divine, by finishing the event. I didn't care much about the new one that we were collecting fragments for, but Moriarty was a nice treat.

I am happy with the prices as I managed to finish, with no passes used, and get the divine I not yet had.
I found help with proceeding, though. Without that help I probably would feel a lot differently.

I have been very unlucky with all the luck items and not got a single divine of them for very long time so I think I deserved to finish and get Dr Moriarty. default smiley (a) I am happy to have him. default smiley :d

The 13 minute delay (I timed it default smiley (li) ) between the regeneration time refreshing for the paces and actually getting the new pace is ridiculous and needs to be fixed. No other event with a similar function has a delay of more than a minute. Having to wait 13 minutes when we have lives and other things to do is beyond ridiculous and very irksome. This needs to be fixed.

I played this on both computer and my Cell Phone. I 100% prefer the Phone layout over the "classic" one as you are a lot less likely to make a move mistake. So perhaps you can implement it more that way so we don't waist time with mistakes. It was also either to many moves needed to get the maze done OR too short on time to do so as you HAD to buy candy to complete it. Also so Sick of the gifts not being worth getting. What you call Bronze Gifts are garbage that is easily gotten in the Store. Your Silver gifts are often the same. Even your Gold Gifts aren't worth straying from the path for them. I remember when it used to be worth it to get at least those as you could get like a Poseidon Pack or better. If you insist on these types of gifts please just give us the currency buy value for the things like Halters, Saddle Cloths, etc. They don't sell for anything really and that is disappointing.

I agree with many on here, the time to get through each maze was too long. The prizes weren't all that great, either. We needed either more time, or more moves generated each day. It's not fair for new players and seasoned players who don't buy passes to not be able to complete all the mazes in the time given so that we can get the divine being offered. Everyone should have been able to finish and get the divine. I had to spend passes to get through the mazes and I don't buy passes all that much anymore as I live on Social Security, which isn't that much, especially when I have to buy my medications, gas for my car, car insurance, groceries, etc.

It's getting to the point where I don't even want to play the events anymore since you can't finish them unless you spend passes. It use to not be that way.

Very Disappointed.

can’t complain, finished for free and even made a few detours to get gold gifts! went the wrong way maybe once or twice, and accidentally skipped sweets also maybe twice. in the end I could’ve picked up 2 other gold gifts next to the path, but I thought I wouldn’t finish so it’s fine. On mobile it was very easy to play, in combination with the spoiler maps.

It was pretty boring though, and the prizes weren’t exactly worth it… except the Hestia & Moriarty, thank you for giving a divine again as a prize default smiley (l)

I liked the event. A divine as a final prize is always nice and appreciated. default smiley :) I look forward to the next event!

It was possible to finish without using passes. I finished a day early without needing extra moves. That does mean you may have to forgo getting extra gifts that were far off the path (most of those weren't that good anyway.)

Since the jackpot divine switched to being in the Crown it's been possible to finish 99% of events without spending passes.

I wish they would give you more time (at least a few more days) and that you didn’t need to spend passes to complete it.

I wish that the recharge period was like 5 mins or something like that. I liked the prizes but i dont really want to get up at some odd hour to advance a mere 3 paces before having to wait 16 hrs before doing it again. Kind of having mixed feelings on this event.

I have a job in the real world so I am not able to log on and play every time a move regenerates and that is a real disadvantage and not really fair to people who aren't camped out playing the game all day. I did not finish all the mazes and wasn't going to waste passes on mediocre prizes. This is one of my least favorite events because it is boring and the prizes weren't that great. I liked the Sherlock Holmes theme though and thought the graphics were better than usual. I would have liked to have gotten the final prize but just wasn't able to finish.

I don't know why everybody's saying you needed passes to complete it?

I spent nothing and got Moriarty. Between the bar having 10 slots on it and the paces taking 2 hours to regenerate, you needed to log on every 20 hours to make sure you didn't miss out on paces. I think that's fairly reasonable. You can either put the effort in to log on once or twice a day, or you can pay passes to make up for it if you really want the divine. There was even a day's buffer in case you lost a few paces.

I enjoyed the event but I did not get to finish the last maze or get the divine. I was super close, but I would have had to buy at least 2 sets of candy and I just didn't think it was worth the passes. I am always frustrated when I am unable to finish an event because I didn't want to spend passes. I played every day and as often as it would let me. Maybe I made a mistake or two that led to me not finishing...? I am sad about missing out on the Hestia's gift, but overall I am still pleased.
